We think it’s important that these stories are seen and heard.

Our team will write up your story and, once you’ve confirmed you are happy, it will be featured on this website.

We will also share stories and pictures on our Facebook and Instagram feeds to raise more awareness.

And we may share stories with the media too, to bring this history to wider attention. You won’t be contacted by any journalists unless you’ve given us permission.

This website will stay live for two years, until September 2027.

We also want these stories to be preserved for future generations. So later next year we will write to you and ask if you are happy for the story and pictures to be shared with the Imperial War Museum, so they can be archived and preserved in perpetuity.
